Problem was solved by updating the firmware on the 6WA kombi.
For updating the 6WA we had to mount a normal NBT instead of the NBT Evo.
Flashing the 6WA with a NBT EVO wont work

br,

Simon

Is there a good DIY for flashing kombi?
I have the same requirement where I want to retrofit CC on a F30 without the LIM function.
As far as I read here it can work without replacing the instrument cluster right? Off course you don't have the light to indicate the CC speed then.

Hi, have you finished the retrofit?

Hi, I am finished today, step_by_step like described in "DIY Cruise Control F30 F20", and all work fine!!!

I had the limiter and installed now the buttons with CC and added 544 to the FA and coded ICM, FEM_BODY & BKOMBI but CC is not working. It just happens nothing when i press any of the buttons. :/ Only the limiter works with the SET-Button after FDL-Coding.

Any ideas?

(I have to note that when i tryed it first i did not use the launcher wiht esys and did not remove the checkmarks for "Update VCM after TAL execution" and "Update MSM after TAL execution" in the settings of e-sys. Is this a problem maybe?)

Do i may need to update ECU's? My F20 is from 2012.

Hi,

did someone solved this problem?

I have same problem with F20 without any buttons on steering from factory, and installed mfsw and cruise control... coded 249 and 544... mfsw is working all ok, but cruise control returns error when i try to active... (stopped it says " cruise control ready")

Yes... it have been coded... i default coded the ICM, FEM ans BKOMBI aftee change VO with adding 249 and 544...

The mfsw is started working correctly... but not CC...

I think is because the cluster doesn't have that green light from CC... just shows on screen...
And on ista returns error in ICM... "ACC KOMBI not sending" or something similar...

I said Flashed. Just Coding is not enough. Kombi needs different firmware.

Hello Shawn,

I flashed kombi with 249 AND 544 options on VO/FA with success... But still showing same error...
I defaulted bkombi after flash...

There is anything that im missing?

Thanks

Hello!

Do you had the Limiter button before on the steering wheel or nothing?

Hi,

Did you found a solution for your problem ?
I have the same issue, the car didn't come with LIM steering wheel.
Do I need to flash Kombi or replace it ?

Thanks

Hello!

When the steering wheel had no button on the left side you have to change the kombi to a version with cruise control. A flash will not help you.

Don't worry, they look similar from outside but the difference is inside.

Thanks Milkyway

I really appreciate your input.
Currently I don't know the part number of the cluster installed or the one I need.

Using realOEM with my VIN didn't help. it gives me a lot of part numbers that all have the option 544A

I saw this on eBay

is it good for cruise control ?

Hello!

Art.-nr 62106991689

Für Fahrzeuge mit

Important here is SA 544. But this cluster is designed for the chinese market (country version China SA 8AA). Is that correct for you?

OK that's great
Options 249 and 544 supported by the cluster

The region isn't important or is it ?
I want it in KMh and in English or Arabic language and that's it.

OK next question, can I just pop it and try the cruise control ? I will worry about the tampering dot and eeprom programming later.
I don't want to buy it and discover that something else is missing for the cruise control to work eg. brake switch or something else under the hood.


I will buy the R270+ and the soiic8 Test clip to program it, is it doable ? Or i need a professional which I can't find near me

Thanks Milkyway I appreciate your help

 

[waleedmango]

I bought the cluster already, my only concern is the tampering LED, will the cruise work if it's flashing ?
